Verdict

We are not publishing a free-tier verdict for either GitBook or Nextra. The only record that would rate GitBook is a change we could not check against an archived copy of GitBook's page, so we are not publishing a rating for it. The page we cite for Nextra states no amount, tier or rate we can read when we last looked, on 2026-10-09. We are not publishing a stability rating for GitBook. We are not comparing the two pricing histories.

A verdict here is not a fixed property of the vendor. A one-off pricing event demotes a vendor while its recorded date falls in the last 180 days and then lapses on its own, with nothing about the vendor having changed; a standing condition — a free tier withdrawn and not restored, a product retired — does not lapse with time. A badge carrying a date states the record it rests on; a badge with no date rests on no record in force.

The free tier no longer includes AI search, AI writing/editing, or a custom domain. It now has a limit of 10 messages per week for GitBook Agent. Unconfirmed. We could not check this change against an archived copy of GitBook's page, so it does not count toward the rating. Source ↗
